I don't have a welder to sell you, unless you want a Lincoln tombstone welder, but be prepared to pay a premium, as it's one of the good old ones. I know what I have. I told you when I'd sell the trailer to you, but I may need an extension since I'm not sure 25 years is enough time for me to finish all my projects I have on the list now.Maybe you have a better one you'd sell me, oh wait, you're the guy who won't sell me a trailer

Yikes! That's a bad day. Wonder how that happened.
I just bought the valve and made my own "kit" didn't really cost that much, the valve was the most expensive part.
Easy, those little china welders work just fine. My Everlast is 10 odd years old now and served me just fine for what it's used for. Besides that, most the Miller and Lincoln welders are 90% China parts for years now.Well, I can always sell them when I upgrade.
A buddy dropped all that junk off, and since I don't have anything maybe the Chinese tools will inspire me to upgrade a bit quicker lol.
My boy is real excited about them because he's been messing with some bikes with 2-stroke engines on them. He just got a fat tire bike that was backed onto for free from a guy from our church. Not sure whether his buddy will get it welded up first with his Chinese welder or we will lol. At least they are 220, better than a 120 Chinese welder.

I got the cash for the siding on the barn, after some insulation, doors, electrical..., then I'll be shopping for a new welder. But, I already bought a nice heavy 50' extension cord for it when I get it.
iv used a Harbor freight Tig welder for aluminum a few times and it did equally as good as a BLUE or RED welder. i actually though the digital display and menu was nicer and easier to use that the Blue and Red ones. had square wave controls. pulse. pre and post flow. arc controls. all of it. and can do 110 or 220. tried both and did great.
wow!
i have heard of splitting the cases... get to the clutch, etc.... but that takes the cake!guess it was FWD! lol
Figured most of them were at least mainly built overseas somewhere.
Hopefully what I meant to say my Chinese phone got right, can't see because I don't have my glasses on, and I'm a bit drugged up, videos of me singing coming soon.
Got all the porting done

Man got to know his limitations ,
I didn't realize you had to be admitted? and they drugged you too? the bib must mean they are about to feed you I assume. good luck in there buddy and remember, the bars are on the widows are for your safety AND ours. keep the chainsaw vroom vroom noises to a minimum if you want out soon .Figured most of them were at least mainly built overseas somewhere.

Someone told me that EVERY tractor under 75HP is built overseas, including Deere. Not sure if that's true or not though. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that it was true.
i have one almost like it... up at ranch in wilderness cabin diorama... big silver twin taking off over the barn and cattle... stand got broke. i put in some steel pins, etc. now prob stronger than the original casting... 2) given to me, condition; repaired 1) repaired then polished. plane will get same treatment... prob some wax, too...

Not sure if I posted these here already or not. I'm on another forum (for tractors), and I forget which pictures I've posted where LOL! But I bought a new Milwaukee pole saw a few days ago, and showed the wife how to use it. Not she's addicted. I don't think we'll have any branches on any of our trees anywhere on our 40 acres below 10' within the next week! But she cut up enough branches to fill my 7' X 14' trailer, so I got out the chipper and put it to work. She loves feeding the chipper too! Then yesterday was her Birthday, so I took her out to dinner and had a few drinks with friends. That's us two on the far left of the picture.
hi H-R - firewood acquisition is an obsession down here, too! after all, no wood, no fire!!
my pursuits more so for the enjoyment of a good fire. not so a must for heating. although all my wood burning fireplaces (7) do cast off the evils of a cold room quite nicely! firewood is easy for me to acquire here around my camp. oak and pecan preferred. some pix. street curb scrounge pecan from my neighbor Larry's place he (88!) put out other day. widow maker project. he still has the big limb... but i did note the pecan on street. more on widow maker's soon... (to be cont'd)
many firewood posts are quite impressive! i always enjoy seeing what other's are up to, can do, and with winter on track... must do. i am at a slower pace. i really prefer no-effort... firewood gathering!! 
suits me just fine! 
especially since it rains the stuff where i live. so, i wasn't sure i would go and scrounge up the pecan. other end of the street. but, alas... i did, sorta like looking a gift horse in the mouth!
not a big scrounge, but none the less quite welcome. as... we build our camp fires one stix at a time! plenty here for a good fire. i will cut in half, maybe even into 3 pcs. build a camp fire to last all afternoon... 
and down here, we build them often...

getting this nice lil load of scrounged pecan firewood... was about as tuff as reaching into the refer for a cold beer!!!

Anyone up for a 150,000 EV 
That's cool, how fast do they go when moving out.
Bummer there aren't many products produced here in the states anymore. It seems that all the big players took so many of the products out of the country when NAFTA went full effect. I remember that fallout here in Michigan very well, lots of folks out of work.
I also remember something about that "giant sucking sound".
